Purpose

A new scheme has been announced which will be
funded through central government. The scheme will be available to
Local Council Tax Support claimants who have a balance of more than
£25 to pay for the financial year 2023/24.
Payment of £25 will be made to the claimant’s council
tax account directly to reduce their liability and must be in place
before the annual billing exercise takes place in February
2023.
Report is being brought to make awareness of the scheme and to
agree the proposed scheme.
